I've been staring
at the edge of the water
long as I can remember
never really knowing why
I wish
I could be
the perfect daughter
but I come back
to the water
no matter how hard I try
Every turn I take
Every trail I track
Every path I make
Every road leads back
To the place I know
where I cannot go
where I long to be
see the line where
the sky meets the sea
it calls me
And no-one knows
how far it goes
if the wind in my sail
on the sea
stays behind me
one day I'll know
If I go there's just
no telling how far I'll go
I know everybody on this
island seems so happy
on this island
everything is by design
I know everybody
on this island has a role
on this island
so maybe I can
roll with mine
I can lead with pride
I can make us strong
I'll be satisfied if I play
along but the voice inside
sings a different song
What is wrong with me?
See the light as it
shines on the sea
it's blinding
but no-one knows
how deep it goes
And it seems like
it's calling out to me
so come find me
and let me know
What's beyond that line
will I cross that line?
See the line where
the sky meets the sea
it calls me
And no-one knows
how far it goes
if the wind in my sail on
the sea stays behind me
one day I'll know
how far I'll go
